Umpteenth Annual Owl Bar Run
This is a Tech tradition, not a Striders and Riders event. You
may walk, run, or bike your way from the NM Tech gym to the Owl
bar. This is not a timed event and there is no time limit, but
the van that carries participants back the the gym leaves the bar at 6
PM. Water is provided every 2 miles along the route and the
distance is approximately 13 miles. Sign up at the Tech gym the
day of the event.
